When you will feel better? Probably not today, tomorrow, or the day after.

When you start feeling better, it may be for a second here, a second there. Then a minute, a few minutes, an hour. You probably will backslide.

How much . . . must you do? A lot.

Nothing is working. It probably is, just very slowly. Like the tide going out. You can't see any difference between one wave and the next, but come back in an hour and you will see some small change. In 6 hours, a lot of change.

Why you? Because life isn't stagnant. It's a continual cycle of growth and decay, of our bodies, relationships. Perhaps the only thing we have that can grow and improve in perpetuity is the soul, if you believe we have one.
